Think air fees pay for all airports? NOPE
Ah, lying again.
You have zero integrity - not a shred.
You could actually BE George Soros.
Or Satan.
But I repeat myself.
Everyone who uses the air transportation system pays taxes to help cover nearly 75% of the costs of developing and running America's National Airspace System (NAS) and improving and maintaining public-use airports.
In addition to this dedicated fund from all aviation users, about one-quarter of the costs for the air transportation system come from the General Fund
FAA Funding Debate - Funding - AOPA
That nice, but the FAA itself is funded by airline taxes. Airport construction and security is not a function of the FAA.
As a result of a pair of rate cuts, first under President Bill Clinton and then under Bush, most of the richest Americans pay lower overall tax rates than middle-class Americans do. And this is one reason the gap between the wealthy and the rest of the country is widening dramatically.
Capital gains tax rates benefiting wealthy are protected by both parties
most of the richest Americans pay lower overall tax rates than middle-class Americans do.
It's weird that they don't give the income levels for the "richest" or "middle class" in their claim.
Why is that?
No Bubs, Ronnie increased REVENUES 60%
Well, if 100 workers paid in 1981 and 160 workers paid in 1989, that would increase revenues by 60%.
Wishful thinking. Or as I call it, the current state of right wing "reality"
Wishful thinking is your claim that Reagan screwed workers with a huge hike in the payroll tax rate.
I've noticed you still haven't posted the numbers.
Why is that?
Sure I did Bubba, he increases SS taxes 60%, he doubled the self employed *SMALL BIZ OWNER)SS taxes!
Sure I did Bubba, he increases SS taxes 60%,
I'm interested in how much he increased SS rates. Why don't you tell me?
Why Bubs? You THAT ignorant you can't figure out increasing SS REVENUES by 60% (he "borrowed" to hide the costs of tax cuts for the rich) IS a tax increase???

Go figure it out Bubs? lol;
the poorest got porer on Progressives' watch
income inequality grew
libs are losers who lie to themselves
Dumbass,,,the middle class and our industry has been ripped apart and sent over sea's the past 35 years. Smaller government + globalism = corporations never being happy enough in America so they go get some asian monkey's!!! We can't make them happy!!! Not with globalism! We have to tariff then rule our own market.
Then we can have high living standards!
Yeah, it was the "poor and middle class" whose taxes were cut *shaking head*
EFFECTIVE tax rates
Dumb2three, you're a lying Commie fuck.
Look, I realize you're just a Soros hate drone, but less that 10% of the shit you spew has any basis in fact.
Soros thinks it clever to graph tax cuts in dollars, rather than percent.
It isn't clever, it just fucking lying.
"Soros thinks it clever to graph tax cuts in dollars, rather than percent."
lol
EFFECTIVE tax rates
The rich use more to the wear on our infrastructure. Why shouldn't they pay more to maintain what they use???
Honestly.
They do? How do they use more of our infrastructure than anybody else?
They buy more goods (roads), go on more vacations (FAA)
Distribution of Tax Expenditure Benefits Differs Greatly, and Is Much Less Favorable to the Middle Class and Low-Incomes Families
The top 1 percent of the population receives 23.9 percent of tax-expenditure benefits — more than eight times as much as the bottom fifth of the population, and nearly as much as the middle 60 percent of the population.

.Then all the investors would pull their money out of the market and ship it overseas or to some other tax reduced investment. The capital gains tax is designed to bring in revenue to the government while at the same time, encourage investment. Increase those taxes to 33% and watch the market crash and burn.
Ronald Reagan thought this was a good idea. When he pushed to have rates reduced to 28%, the capital gains rate was 28% also. It wasn't until later that everyone thought it to be such a great idea to reduce those rates.

Reducing those rates was a great idea.
AFTER Ronnie increased them and "simplified" the tax code according to you? lol
Capital Gains Tax Cuts ‘By Far’ The Biggest Contributor To Growth In Income Inequality, Study Finds
By far, the largest contributor to this increase was changes in income from capital gains and dividends. Changes in wages had an equalizing effect over this period as did changes in taxes. Most of the equalizing effect of taxes took place after the 1993 tax hike; most of the equalizing effect, however, was reversed after the 2001 and 2003 Bush-era tax cuts. […]
The large increase in the contribution of capital gains and dividends to the Gini coefficient, however, is due to the large increase in the share of after-tax income from capital gains and dividends, and to the increase in the correlation of this income source with after-tax income.
Hungerford’s findings are similar to a study he produced for the Congressional Research Service in 2011, which found that while income grew 25 percent from 1996 to 2006 for all Americans, it grew 74 percent for the top 1 percent and 96 percent for the top 0.1 percent. That study also found that tax cuts on capital gains were the biggest driver of the disparity.
Really? Then why did lowering the capital gains rates work so well for Bill Clinton? You know, the best economy in our lives?
work so well? Oh you meant take revenues from the treasury?
Which is exactly what happens to most guys who live in their mommy's basement and rarely venture out.

So tell us, what percentage of total income did you pay in federal tax for 2014?
Federal tax ÷ total income=?
Well when yo make nothing, you pay nothing.
See everyone? I told you all that Republicans, if given the chance, would make the argument that a rich guy shouldn't pay any more taxes than a poor man. I KNEW IT!As a result of a pair of rate cuts, first under President Bill Clinton and then under Bush, most of the richest Americans pay lower overall tax rates than middle-class Americans do. And this is one reason the gap between the wealthy and the rest of the country is widening dramatically.

Romney paid 1.94 million in taxes…he paid more than his fair share……did you pay 1.94 million in taxes asshole?
That doesn't work stupid. And the guy who got rich didn't get rich in the utopia you dream of. In fact he would have NEVER gotten rich under your system of fairness and equality. You are a stupid fuck.
the richest got richer on your Progressive watch stupid.....................and they passed on their tax hikes to the poor in the form of higher prices for goods and services. great job leftard!!
Oh so it's NOT the entire FAA structure we should worry about, just they pay 75% of costs? lol
Dumbass!
Wait ... you're saying people pay taxes willingly, even eagerly, free from threat of draconian gov't sanctions enforced at gunpoint? Really?
Stop lying.
Flat tax would never go through.
The left wants to not pay tax and have the total burden put on others. A flat tax would make everyone pay. ( think fair share )
Those that pay the least are also the ones that create the highest cost to society.
Maybe.
The left loves to talk about the glory days before Reagan, when the tax rates went up to 70%. Of course, they fail to mention that the poor and middle class paid a higher percentage of the income tax than they do today.
IT has been growing since the early 80's...Free trade is a failure! The government has been supporting exploration, science and infrastructure investment since the dawn of civilization. How hard is this for you to understand? Jefferson supported Lewis and Clark to the pacific.did income inequality grow under obama/dems?
it's a yes or no question
I dont care if it screws me, I just want it to screw those that are bitching about others not paying their fair share while they sit back and pay nothing.Flat tax would never go through.

I doubt that. What a "flat tax" would do is...Due to the enormous corruption and cronyism in our federal government, many wealthy use their expensive lawyers to get out of paying taxes. The current tax code is 70k pages...time for a change.
Let's go to a simple flat tax. That would eliminate the political class' efforts to enrich their donors/owners.
